Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been an increasing interest in bryophyte ecology over the past 100 or so years, initially of a phytosociological nature but, additionally, in recent years, of an experimental nature as well. Early studies of bryophyte communities have led to detailed investigations into the relationships between the plants and their environment. Ecological papers, the large number of which is evidenced by the length of the bibliographies in the subsequent chapters, have appeared in numerous journals. Yet, apart from review chapters, by H. Gams and P. W. Richards in Manual of Bryology, edited b:; H. Verdoorn in 1932 and chapters in E. V. Watson's Structure and Life of Bryophytes, Prem Puri's Bryophytes - A Broad Perspective and D. H. S. Richardson's The Biology of Mosses, published in 1972,1973 and 1981 respectively, no general accounts of bryophyte ecology have been published. Although the Bryophyta is a relatively small division of plants, with between 14000 and 21000 species the interest that they have aroused is out of all proportion to the size either of the plants or of the division. It is evident, however, that despite their relative insigni ficance they play an important ecological role, especially in extreme environments and, in the case of bryophytes in tropical cloud forests and of Sphagnum, may even be a dominant factor in the ecology of the area concerned.

Download or read book Impacts of Rock Climbing on Lichen and Bryophyte Communities at McLellan Rocks and Rocks of Sharon Climbing Areas, Spokane County, WA written by Giovanna M. Bishop and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saxicolous lichens and bryophytes dominate cliff communities of Eastern Washington State. A recent rise in the outdoor recreation of rock climbing has caused major concerns over its potential negative impacts on cliff-dwelling biodiversity. To better understand how rock climbing is impacting lichen, bryophyte and vascular plant communities in Spokane, WA, I surveyed two sites: McLellan Rocks and Rocks of Sharon, for the abundance, richness and diversity of lichens, bryophytes and vascular plants. Sixteen paired transects consisting of a climbed route and the unclimbed adjacent cliff face, with eight plots per transect for a total of 256, 0.5m2 plots were surveyed for this study. Climbed and unclimbed communities overlapped, but were significantly different from one another. Overall, cover was significantly lower in climbed transects compared to unclimbed transects. Rock climbing routes at McLellan Rocks had reduced plant cover, richness and diversity. Climbing also decreased lichen cover, richness, and diversity, however, it was site specific: lichen cover and diversity decreasing at Rocks of Sharon, while lichen richness decreased at McLellan Rocks. Lichen morphogroups were differentially impacted. Crustose and endolithic lichen cover and richness exhibited a positive response to climbing pressure at McLellan Rocks, and crustose lichen richness was also higher in climbed vs. unclimbed areas at Rocks of Sharon. The remaining morphogroups decreased in cover, richness, and diversity in response to rock climbing. Specifically, foliose cover, fruticose cover, umbilicate cover, richness, and diversity, and leprose cover at Rocks of Sharon were lower on climbed routes, as was fruticose lichen cover at McLellan Rocks. In addition to climbed status, route age, route popularity, approach distance, slope, rock heterogeneity, plot height, and canopy cover significantly influenced community composition. I found 118 lichen, 29 bryophyte and two vascular plant species. The most common species were crustose lichens within the genus Rhizocarpon, and the most diverse lichen groups were the foliose genus Xanthoparmelia and the umbilicate lichen genus Umbilicaria. At the McLellan Rocks site, bryophytes were extremely diverse and abundant, species included the mosses Grimmia trichophylla, Antitrichia californica, and Syntrichia ruralis as well as the liverwort Porella cordaeana. Based on my results, I conclude that rock climbing mainly impacts cliff-dwelling lichen, bryophyte and vascular plant communities at my studies sites in decreasing cover, richness, and diversity. However, different patterns of impacts were observed at the two sites surveyed here, suggesting that unique management plans must be developed for each climbing area"--Pages iv-v.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reference provides information about recent trends in bryology in parts of India, tropical rainforests and arctic regions. Bryophytes are the earliest land plants and quite fascinating in their overall diversity. All through its history, bryological study has contributed considerably to the field of plant sciences, for instance, the discovery of sex chromosomes in plants. The study of bryophytes is fundamental to our understanding of land plant evolution, and the latest progress in molecular phylogenetics and genomics have given researchers a clear depiction of land colonization of plants and subsequent terrestrial progression. Ecologically, the importance of bryophytes for the participation in biogeochemical cycles, in particular carbon cycle is now appreciated. Further, there has been an escalating interest in the conservation biology of bryophytes. The contributors have put forward holistic information regarding current research scenario of bryology in a range of environments to readers learning about research in applied bryology. The compilation of reviews presents reported findings related to various aspects of the subject, such as, conservation, diversity, tissue culture, bio-monitoring, computational bryology, molecular bryology, and species. Botanists and bryologists will receive updated information that will be valuable for their research work. The reader-friendly text is also suitable for beginners in applied plant science. Recent Advances in Botanical Science provides updated research and reviews on topics related to plant biology, genetics, taxonomy and ecology. The series is a useful resource for readers interested in applied plant science.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bryophyte Biology provides an extensive overview of the hornworts, liverworts, and mosses; diverse groups of land plants that occupy a great variety of habitats throughout the world. This edition covers essential aspects of bryophyte biology, from morphology, physiological ecology and conservation, to speciation, and genomics. Revised classifications incorporate contributions from recent phylogenetic studies. Six new chapters complement fully updated chapters from the original book to provide a completely up-to-date resource. New chapters focus on the contributions of Physcomitrella to plant genomic research, population ecology of bryophytes, mechanisms of drought tolerance, a phylogenomic perspective on land plant evolution, and problems and progress of bryophyte speciation and conservation. Written by leaders in the field, this book offers an authoritative treatment of bryophyte biology, with rich citation of the current literature, suitable for advanced students and researchers.
